Convoy of Hope Delivers 100,000 Pounds of Relief Supplies to Texas Hill Country Impacted by July 4 Flooding

SPRINGFIELD, Mo., July 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Within hours of the historic Fourth of July flooding in the Texas Hill Country, Convoy of Hope sprang into action, coordinating with local churches, mobilizing volunteers and loading multiple tractor trailers with needed relief supplies.

By Saturday afternoon, the first of many semitrucks rolled into the communities impacted by the flooding. Across multiple counties and towns, including Kerrville, Convoy of Hope is on the ground distributing food, water, hygiene supplies, baby kits and cleaning kits to people in need. 

"We seek to bring the right resources to the right places at the right time," said Stacy Lamb, Convoy of Hope's Vice President of Disaster Services. "Over 100,000 pounds of resources have been sent and 10,000 people have currently been served."

This team is highly regarded for its scalable response and distribution model, which uses several warehouses, a specialized disaster response fleet and a highly-trained team of staff and volunteers to respond to disasters quickly and effectively.

"We want to help as many people as we can for as long as we can," said Lamb. "We are partnering with local churches across the region in Kerr County, Burnet County, San Sabo County and Tom Green County in our initial, early recovery phase."

"We're thankful it's not just a weekend thing," said Mario Calderón, Executive Pastor of Creative Arts at Gateway Fellowship in San Antonio. "They're going to be here to help develop a disaster response plan to help us rebuild Kerr County."

"Disasters like this don't end when the flood waters recede. That's just the beginning," said Ethan Forhetz, Convoy of Hope's national spokesperson. "We're committed to walking with these families to restore hope and ensure no one is left behind in the recovery process."
